Comments:

this was not good. I am happy with my time considering how awful my start was. I got my chip pulled off and had to stop to re-adjust.
What would you do differently?:

Make sure my chip is under the leg of my wetsuit and get in a lot more open water swims.

Comments:

my chip came off in T1, so no official timing here. I got the chip back on for exit of T2 so I took the difference and the data from my bike computer and made some guesses to the best of my ability.

I felt great here. I did not feel like I was going at a 7:32 pace.
What would you do differently?:

nothing.

Event comments:

outside of the swim a good race for me. this was my best bike to date. I averaged over 20 mph and then ran 7:32's for the 10k portion, so training paid off for sure. I HAVE to concentrate more on the swim from now on. That is for sure going to hold me back from placing higher in these events.
